Dan......Looks gorgeous mate, and I KNOW you'll be over the moon with it. Get it de-limited and that's all you need to do 
Don't play with the engine, it's superb as it is. The only mods I've considered is the front brakes ...... as they are perfect for the road, but renown for not being up to track days if your really pushing it. The suspension is something that can be improved on, but not by much. Your going to love it.
STU : You know you want one.
How many on here now ??????

I bought from a Garage and they really looked after me. Full MOT, 6 months Tax, set of tyres and a new clutch and dual mass flywheel.
E39's start at around 11k upwards, however you can get the odd dog sack or 2 for 9-10k. (steer clear)

I've been over the moon with mine.........not as quick as the cossie was but about the same as a good stage 3 cossie. But so refined, it's decieving. Get that electronic limiter (155mph) removed and you'll regularly see 160+...... Drove up to Hull overnight, and had a great drive and at 160 it's still just ticking along, without any stress at all. And I arrived fresh and without back ache.

I'm in the same boat as you - Absolutely love my E39, makes me wonder why I fucked about with cossies and such shite for so long
The final nail in the "cossie coffin" was at the 'Ring last year when a 530d Sport came past me like I was stood still (My speedo was reading 90ish at the time) - could I catch it? Could I fuck
Straightline speed out of these things are astonishing for the size of them, and they go round corners amazingly well, I'll even say that it handles a million times better than my old Sapph did -and that had money thrown at it to make it go round corners

Well I have had it a week, will be delimited next week at MSD Jim.
And yes, Andy, I think the Bank Holiday lands towards the end of March in 2008.
I am ready for some ring action
